USMCA On Agenda for 2019

Published November 12, 2018

The U.S. Canada Mexico Agreement will be on the agenda for lawmakers in 2019. National Corn Growers Association CEO Jon Doggett comments on the timeline. “When the vote will occur, I’m not sure. We want to make sure the vote doesn’t occur until we get the votes,” he says. “I think we’ll get there, but it will take lots of grassroots efforts in the country.” Doggett also says the implementing language for the agreement hasn’t been written. That could be a sticking point in discussions. “I think this has been a pretty good deal and there should be broad support for it.”
